Fixing problems with Neverwinter Nights 2 on Vista Home Premium 32bit

microsoft.public.windows.vista.games

I just bought NWN 2 last night and installed it, no problems. My laptop
met or exceeded the minimum requirements. However, I start to run it,
and it comes up with an error saying that I have no compatible Direct3D
device. What does this mean? I updated it completely, that didn't fix
the problem. I have Vista Home Premium 32bit, if that helps. Any ideas?

This sounds as though your video adapter in yor laptop is not up to specs.
It is possible that you haven't dedicated enough Video Memory to the adapter
in Windows or via the Bios. Try increasing the memory for your adapter
through the Display Adapter Control Panel or through your BIOS. That may fix
the problem.
